Relationships

The only thing as strong as our creative services is my client partnerships. The design business is about building solid and lasting relationships, as is yours. I have been fortunate to align myself with some of the same valued clients consistently over the last 10+ years. Many clients view me simply as an extension of their creative wing. This synergy is maintained through exceptional communication and a superior product.

Design Process

Each client is as distinctive as their business. I estimate each design job uniquely based on the scope of the individual project or combination of projects. I don’t believe in cookie-cutter pricing or design work. I strive to provide results that truly reflect your brand image and personality, while exceeding your business goals and expectations.

About Erik

After 20 years in the design industry, Erik Karvonen has partnered with a broad array of clients in many different industries. Erik has had the opportunity to work with clients in travel and hospitality, real estate, technology, fashion, architecture, politics, and non-profit, to name a few. 

"I feel very lucky. I get to create something new and different for my clients every day."

Memorable moment: Winning the Simple is Smart Design award in New York City and being featured in two national design publications, HOW Magazine and Print. 

Passion project:  The major $600 million expansion of the Phoenix Civic Plaza led to the renaming of Phoenix Convention Center. As it became a premier convention center, attracting national and international events, a complete new branding identity was necessary. I was hired to create the new (and still current) logo, brand standards, and all marketing and sales collateral materials, as well as displays, signage and advertising. I worked closely with the Phoenix Convention Center for more than eight years.

For fun: Home remodel projects. Road trips. Abstract painting. Insanely hard yoga classes. Relaxing in Santa Fe and Sedona. Hiking and trail running.
